Vanishing act

Experience rich, room-filling sound from speakers that disappear into your surroundings. Polk's MC65 speakers install flush in your wall for a sleek, décor-friendly look. Use the 3/4" pivoting tweeter to precisely direct the high frequencies and really dial in your system's sound. The 6-1/2" woofer provides smooth bass and mid-bass. And this speaker's moisture-resistant design means you can use it in your kitchen, bathroom, sauna, or even under the eaves outside.

Building a system

Install a pair of the MC65s for stereo music listening. These speakers can also work as the fronts, center, and surrounds in a surround sound system. The MC65s are voice-matched with the other MC in-wall and in-ceiling speakers, so you can mix and match.

An optional in-wall bracket is recommended for installing the MC-65 in a new home under construction.

Great Purchase

I was on the fence about using these as rear surround speakers in a relatively small room. I decided to give them a shot and i'm very happy I kept them. Easy installation, just make sure you don't but them up against a 2 x 4 in the wall as they have arms that need to open up to grab the wall.

Overall incredible sound experience now watching tv. They offer a very clear full sound and I couldn't be happier.

Great buy!

Written By Pat, North Carolina on Saturday, December 20, 2014

I bought these to replace a pair of no-name's that were installed by the previous owner. The old ones had decent bass but vibrated on low frequencies (i.e. Mr. Probz - Wave after Wave) and I decided on these (without any way of hearing them first) due to price, reviews and the fact that they have a suggested power range of 20-100 watts. I wouldn't say they have great lows (I always thought of Polks as having more mid-range than anything else), but I also no longer have the vibration. That being said, I'm also using these with a 20 yr. old Yamaha 50 watt receiver and considering going with the Denon AVR-S500BT which puts out a little more power at 70w per channel. One oddity: neither box came with any sort of specs: only the installation guide and template along with a registration card. Anyhow, I'll follow up if and when I upgrade to the Denon. Who knows, I may even add a sub.

Update 3.1.2015 Sorry for the long delay in updating this review. I purchased the Denon AVR-S500BT through a big box store since no other site had it in stock (not even Denon) and it was a big disappoinment: the lows were nowhere near my old Yamaha and both channels only worked on the stereo setting. Anyhow, maybe there was a "break-in" period for these Polk's, but I'm really impressed with them. The lows are much better than I thought, whether listening to .mp3's or streaming video. You can't go wrong with these, especially for the price.

Polk MC65

Last year we built our first home and wired it up for sound, even the bathrooms. 17 of these MC 65s all around the house. Amazing clarity and length of sound waves. Big rooms, small rooms, all clear, crisp sound. I'm not kidding, being at my buddies house, (he put in a $7,000 system, mostly in ceiling speakers, no bathrooms, professionally installed, dead spots everywhere), mine sounds unbelievably better, more thorough, way more pure, and I'm in it for just over $1,200! Thanks to these superb speakers. (If you're doing a home wire, do your bathrooms too, you won't regret it).

Snoop Dogg to Celine Dion, these babies get it done. Mark Knopfler is king in my house. I was happy with the price point and clean rectangular look. And the name Polk, well, let's just say I was already a Polk fan, now I'm even more in love. Sioux hockey game sounds bleed throughout it every room.

The grill does need convincing to get seated properly, which could gouge a speaker if one isn't careful. A little bend here and there, they sit ok.

The aimable tweeters are amazing for filling gaps or ceiling bouncing. The ceiling bounce gives a full carry but there's nothing like a direct shot of tweeter to your senses. Every home is different. You choose the final sound.

Powering is the Sony Bluetooth Receiver I got during Christmas. Love it. Now anyone can play tunes over the house, even guests. Simple volume knobs in each room for isolation volume and impedence matching.

Strong, clear sound

I'm very pleased with these speakers. Great sound and clarity whether we're listening to music, or watching a movie. Although I left them white, they came ready for painting with the mask in place., which I thought was cool. I think they'd be a great complement to a surround system.

MC65

Great in-wall speakers. I started out with 2, purchased 2 more and plan to purchase 2 more again to use on my covered patio for outdoor listening. I originally was going to put smaller speakers on shelves around my room but I am so glad to have seen these instead. They look great in the wall and the sound quality is excellent. Great value as well.

Good sound aweful grills

My install was fairly complex due to inaccessibiliy of certain areas of my hose. How ever the instal was a breeze in comparison to installing the silly speake grills. In the end a couple of mine dented but thanks to Crutchfield they were replaced

Great speaker for a great price

I purchased four Polk Audio MC-65 speakers to use as my front and rear speakers in my surround system. They were simple to install, sound great. I used a Polk Audio 255C-RT as the center channel and a Polk Audio DSW Pro 660wi sub woofer. I am using a Onkyo TX NR818 receiver. This system was easy to install, Crutchfield support was awesome!

Sound great!

Speakers are amazing! I've had these for a month now and couldn't be happier. I have them hooked up to a sony str-dh740 as fronts. Sound great look great And were way better than I expected for the low price. I would recommend these to every one

Polk Audio MC65 In-wall speaker

I installed a pair of these in the eaves of my roof overhang in our back yard; they're about 30 feet apart on a house that is 70 feet long. The climate here is very dry, and the MC65's are rated for a humid environment, such as a bathroom, so I don't expect any issues with the environment. They are driven by a Grace digital radio, primarily so my wife can listen to NPR while gardening and I can enjoy streamed classical music from stations near and far. These speakers have great sound; it seems they like seeing the large volume of attic behind them in this sort of semi-infinite baffle installation. The bass is great, midrange is clean, the highs are crisp and well dispersed, and if you sit in the right area in the garden the stereo imaging is pretty good as well. The 16W/channel from the Grace radio is more than adequate to drive these to levels that would annoy our neighbors, so their sensitivity in this application is very good. I am very pleased with the MC65's.

Pros:Install was very easy: Select a location, check for structure, trace the template, cut and mount - very easy.

Product Research

Features

MC Series: The Polk Audio MC Series in-wall/in-ceiling
loudspeakers offer great built-in sound for multi-room listening. The MC Series
features Dynamic Balance driver
technology, an aimable tweeter, and polymer cone woofers, which ensures your
music always sounds crisp and clear. The MC Series also uses infinite baffle
tuning for excellent bass response, so you can install them in virtually any
kind of wall.

Dynamic Balance Technology: Laser imaging technology allows
Polk Audio engineers to see the entire vibrating surface of a driver and
tweeter; they can actually see the resonance develop on the speaker
cones-resonance that is the root cause of loudspeaker distortion. Being able to
see the resonance develop, they then determine the Dynamic Balance of high-tech
materials, geometry and construction that together effectively tune out the
offending resonance. Exclusive Dynamic Balance Composite Material Technology
delivers sound that is effortlessly clean and clear, even at lifelike volume
levels.

Moisture-resistant: Durable, moisture-resistant materials
allow you to install the speakers in bathrooms, kitchens, saunas, even under
outdoor eaves.

Timbre-matched: The MC Series speakers are timbre matched to
Polk Audio's freestanding speakers, such as the Polk Monitor, TSi, and
OWM series; just in case you need in-wall/in-ceiling surround speakers to match
your freestanding fronts.

Mounting Options

Installation: Each speaker requires a
cutout of 7.25" (W) x 12.75" (H), with a depth of 3.1875" behind the drywall. Each speaker
frame has a width of 8.5" and a height of 14.3125". Once the holes are cut, each speaker is placed in
the opening and the Rotating Cams are tightened, allowing you to secure each
speaker to the drywall without any extra assembly. The cam extends 1.25" deep
from the mounting surface of the speaker and will accommodate a drywall
thickness up to 1.25". When the cams are rotated, each extends 0.8125" beyond the
7.25"
cutout width. If you will not be mounting these speakers in drywall, make
sure the wall or ceiling material can safely support the weight of the speakers
before installation; each speaker weighs approximately 3.4 pounds.

Paintable: The grille and flange can be painted, allowing
these speakers to match any decor.
